About the Program

This certificate program is designed for working engineers interested in medical devices and technology. Students enrolled in this program will develop an understanding of the critical regulatory, economic, and legal issues in addition to the project management skills that facilitate the development of new medical devices.

Writing-intensive Requirements

In order to graduate, all students must pass three writing-intensive courses after their freshman year. Two writing-intensive courses must be in a student's major. The third can be in any discipline. Students are advised to take one writing-intensive class each year, beginning with the sophomore year, and to avoid “clustering” these courses near the end of their matriculation. Transfer students need to meet with an academic advisor to review the number of writing-intensive courses required to graduate.

For additional information, and an up-to-date list of the writing-intensive courses being offered, students should check the Drexel University Writing Center page
